    awesome stuff sir! I have to say, I never had the feeling I was lacking power with the kraton.... Have fun with the car!

    Really appreciating your perspective. Like you, I enjoy RC, but have no plans to go pro with races lasting 2 & 3 days. Some of the guys covering their upgrades come from the basis of prolonged racing while also being sponsored.
    Again, great vid. Subscribed.

    If you want to remove the stock front bumper, highly recommend the M2C front hinge pin braces. They come with threaded hinge pins. Flat nut on one side you red loctite in place. Then the other side which is facing forward uses nylock nuts. Much more secure and they will not spread apart. Also, for your HR hubs, always keep a spare set or two of the carbon ears. Hard to find but they’re on eBay. Eventually they will snap or if your tie rods come loose, it’ll enlarge the holes. Crank down more, it’ll crush the carbon over time, then snap.

    Did you end up changing the gearing or sticking with the 20t?

  • @kavikkang9411
    @kavikkang9411 3 года назад

    The benefit of the metal steering blocks is the general philosophy of having metal down the middle (driveline), metal on the ends (steering blocks), and plastic in the middle (a arms and drive shafts) which are meant to be like fuses in an electrical system. The things that are meant to break. Then keep spare drive shafts and a arms and, if things go to plan... you already have what is supposed to break. What you hope breaks instead of the driveline.
    The steering blocks also don't flex or twist at all, so they keep all of the steering components locked in place in relation too each other out at the wheels. They do a lot more than they might appear to do, and are a part of the fundamental design of how a "tank" is supposed to work. I turned my Kraton 4S into a tank with this design, because it was pretty weak for the power it had out of the box... this is why the parts exist to do this to almost any car.

    • @kavikkang9411
      @kavikkang9411 3 года назад

      Never get metal a arms on any kind of basher unless you just want a show car, that is going completely against the grain of what you are supposed to be doing.

      SpeedSyko there are fans where you remove the whole plastic top of the Max6 and screw it directly into the heat sink, problem gone entirely. Or... I shared a link with the breaking fans issue to someone else’s reply to my comment.

    Hello from the UK! Now that's a very good looking v3. Is there any Arrma left!? Wish we had access to after-market parts like you guys (at a decent price). Can't wait to see running vids.. I have a Hobbywing 5687 waiting to put in mine, but have been waiting...and waiting.....and waiting for the v4 Max6 (because of the temp sensors on the new motors). Might buckle soon and get v3 as Hobbywing said "it's (v4) not due soon" back in Feb.

    Remove the clip and washers on front rpm arms to pillowballs. If you jump with them with rpm arms you will pop front shafts and tear your arms up/bend shaft.

      I'm upgrading my Kraton 6S V4 and have a lot of the same upgrades as he does. In case you hadn't heard a response, this here are some of the main parts he has (and possibly a few others that I can attest are good). A simple search on EBAY, Amazon, or Google with these references ought to get you what you need. Parts will be in parentheses:
      •RPM Front Bumper (RPM81472)
      •Traxxas Rod Ends (TRA 1942)
      •Hot Racing Front Axle Carriers / Steering Hubs (AON21M01)
      •Hot Racing Rear Axle Carriers (AON22M01)
      •Hot Racing Aluminum Center Diff Mount (AO38A01)
      •Hot Racing Aluminum Diff Gearbox--only get 1 p/order so x2--(AON12E01)
      •Hot Racing Aluminum Gearbox Case Bulkhead Cover--x2(AON12C01)
      •Hot Racing Aluminum Sway Bar Mount Set AON311M01
      •Just Bash It R/C Re-enforced 5mm Aluminum Chassis and Re-enforced Aluminum Shock Towers (Google it and you should find their site)
      •Hot Racing Aluminum Rear Chassis Brace (AON30C01)
      Hot Racing Aluminum Front Chassis Brace (AON28C01)
      EDIT: Forgot the Arms.
      •RPM Front upper and lower arms--1 pack gets you upper & lower for one side of car p/ pack so you'll need to order x2 (RPM 81482)
      •RPM Rear Arms--only 1 pack needed (RPM 81402)
      Hope this helps.

    Consider ordering the hinge pins from M2C, it solves the front bumper issue. Instead of the full kit you can drill out the back side of the stock mount and use his threaded hardened steal hinge pins. It's about $13 a pair or you can do the full kit that's $70 each. I am running the full kit up front and the drilled stock on the rear. m2cracing.net/arrma/473-m2c-3137-arrma-captured-hinge-pins.html

    I'm assuming your belted tires are long gone. They are worthless for offroad. IMHO a true down grade from stock. I'm at a point now where the only thing I will consider changing is motor esc from stock. Every rc I've owned runs much better stock. Rc helicopters you would be hard pressed to find any aftermarket parts.

      Nah.... He did not upgrade because he had to, he did it because he wanted to. Also, why would anyone spend a high price for mostly plastic with a Traxxas that also needs massive metal upgrades which does not come stock, less so then a 6S ARRMA. Traxxas are Apple of RC's. High priced with cheap produced parts while ARRMA and Losi you are getting more then what you are paying for hence better price for value.
